Agree that Sedan can do most of the Indian road without much hassle. Good demo of the fact, 👍👍👍
SUVs can do better than sedans in Indian road conditions..(suspension and ground clearance)
@@anupamasundar7091 agree if bad roads are your daily commute, like in small villages and town. But for most of the city and highway rides where stiff suspensions and high GC is not useful... sedans are more comfortable.
Ground clearence is never an issue in sedans.... What really matters is the approach angle due to the long set front bumbers.. That could be easily get used to....
Compact suv are overhyped and overpriced these days...
Either go for a premium hatchback or a true sedan or a true suv...
Well said
Exactly!
Ur Right brother
What are premium hatchback under 10 lakh
Agreed
Difference makes when car is fully weight.
Ground clearance is actually a combination of both space between the bottom of the car and a total length of the car (read distance between the two wheels). Compact SUVs although have a similar Space, their overy length is smaller than sedans.
To consider this perspective, let's compare the ground clearance of 2 whe wheelars like activa. Their wheel base is small. To have the same ground clearance in the car, we will have to fit in tyres of very large diameters.
This does makes sense!!! Thanks for coming up with this detail👍🏽
could you share your experience with 5 passengers seated in broken patches or speed breakers. Does it have sufficient GC to tackle all such scenarios with 5 passengers?
S CVT is one of the most bang for money you can buy.
It’s like driving a million peso car. It’s so smooth, spacious, powerful and nimble.
Trust me. Real owner here.
Ang taas Ng ground clearance nila paps 134mm lng sa pinas?
Petrol city with manual is phenomenal 🔥
CVT 👎
Highlighting the ground clearance issue on a sedan and boasting the same in a compact SUV by increasing it a millimetres is just a marketing gimmick that car manufacturers are following now, especially in India due to our bad roads. Sedans have survived bad roads in India for several years. Now all of a sudden people are so concerned about ground clearance.
Its not about ground clearance alone. .alone..its about suspension, utility, space etc..I have driven a honda city and Seltos on a same bumpy road with pot holes..and SUV did way better than a sedan
@@anupamasundar7091 I totally agree that SUVs do much better in bumpy roads than sedans. But the comfort that sedans give on long drives cannot be obtained in SUV. My point was that, sedans have been in the market from back when roads were even worse than the current roads. In 90's almost everyone had sedans only. Besides, cars like seltos, venue and creta are all crossovers. They're not SUVs. That itself is a marketing gimmick. Building a taller body on a sedan platform (example: Elevate) won't make it a SUV. Proper SUVs are cars like Fortuner, Range Rover, etc..
i love Sedans brought ford fiest in 2011 still bought second sedan today honda city 5 gen
never liked suvs never bought you don't have to follow indian bhed chaal, Sedans are luxury no suv can give you that, that ground clearance shit is just a myth i never felt any lack with my sedan
@Abhishek. : which one do you own ?
This is just the kind of video I'm looking for. I'm planning to get a City Hatchback so this video answered all my questions.
It is big marketing strategy of ground clearance otherwise 10-15 mm is negligible when you see practically
Thank you for the video bro.
Can you please do the same video with passengers?
7 years back I bought compact SUV instead of Honda city because of ground clearance myth. Still I m thinking to buy Honda city but my friends are stopping me 😐.
I love sedans ❤️
Sure 👍 will try. However i have tried with 5 people in car along with 150Kg luggage in the car boot and we didn't had any issues. You can blindly go for the city :)
But if i get a chance i will do for sure and film it for you :)
Correct question
Go for Skoda Slavia !!
You should buy
@@MotorcarUnleaded please do
Earlier People driving Ambassador,Fiat 1100,Esteem were never scared or worried of ground clearance.Its Compact suv which started giving feel sedan car mean low ground clearance problem
You are correct :)
No one thinks about suspension....SUV has better (action)/and bigger suspension
Nice topic. And u tried to bring out a valid point. However 1 inch does make a lot of difference. It is just that the ground clearance of a sedan is sufficient for most driving conditions except few extreme off roading conditions. Therefore the extra ground clearance is redundant in usual day-to-day driving.
Just for your benefit buddy u need to work on your English a bit. Lots of glitches there 😀
Thanks for sharing
I thought the ground clearance of Honda city ( any variants) is 134 mm.. Am I right?
It’s not about Only Ground Clearance of the car, It is about the Aperture and Departure Angle Also.
One issue bro.. good video but try with 4-5 people in car and try on bumpers.. if u can do that.. plzz do video on it..
Sure will do :)
Yes. I owned city 5 th gen, there is no issue in speed break. It is amazing to drive. very good car.
I'm considering this car. Could you please tell me what is your running cost, ie, fuel cost and servicing cost? Thanks in advance.
@@wecas9596 you will never have cost of ownership of a maruti but Honda City service is affordable. You can expect mileage of 14.5 average. For long Highway runs you can even get 20+. Trust me you will never regret buying Honda City. It's a well engineered product with a very good engine. Go for it.
which color is it? Looks sleek!
If possible make a vlog on how the service is done have the same car same model, but never got a chance to explore the service center. I’m from Ahmedabad too. Cheers to your efforts in putting out reviews on sedans.
Will do for sure, And thank you so much for your support :)
This video is a great demonstration whats important is approach and departure angle and the weight in the car the more the load the more it is prone to touch the breakers and rough patches
In Pune we have monstrous speed breakers, most of them are built by people privately and corporations are unaware of them.
So nice of you to explain in a detailed fashion... Thanks a lot. Please post videos on milage and ownership experience too.
Hi Ajay. Thank you for your appreciation. We have post couple of videos for mileage Aswell. You can check on the channel :)
@@MotorcarUnleaded Sure will do. Just subscribed your channel... Will take a look at them... All the very best!
Thank you so much for subscribing. Will keep posting new videos. Stay tuned :)
Very informative, thanks 👍
Very nice explanation with lots of important information.Keep it up.👍
Thanks a lot
Skoda Slavia is a blessing in case of ground clearance... 179mm ❤️ Also the 150hp 250Nm power ❤️
Is 179mm clearance with or without passangers?
@@dance077 Unladen... Means without any passenger or luggage...
But slavia base is not worth Honda city base is vfm.
@@yashagrawal744 Definitely, you are correct.
i own a honda city as well as ford ecosport. ecosport has HUGE advantage in approach angle compared to City. ecosport also has high-mount transmission breather, and the power steering motor is just below the steering wheel, so the ecosport has much higher water wading. so it's not just about the ground clearance.
But the City is noticeably more comfortable and plush on bad roads than any crossover sold as SUV.
When it is fully loaded no technique will save you from scrapping. You take any angle doesn't matter.
Very nice info.. exactly me..i was considering compact suv over sedan just becoz of ground clearance..though i love sedans.. u have cleared my mind
i am being an owner of hondacity 2020 can say it honestly that ground clearance is a big problem with this car. It touches at the bottom very often unless it is driven at a very very slow speed when moving over a speed breaker
same issue with me..
Perfectly explain the mm myth which most of the cSUV owners have👌🏻👍🏻✌🏻
If i put just one rubber lifter each in front tires, will it be okay? To add just a bit of ground clearance. I hope it will not affect the fuel consumption tho
Please make video about 4th generation Honda City VS 5th generation Honda City
How did the front passenger side running board get damaged?
Does it really have 165 mm specially under the engine cover.. I belive that section does not have more than 100 mm clearance
Please, what about stability for this car specially with high speed
It is also about the approach and departure angle
6:00 it's not a truck or tracktor 🤣
What about approach and departure angles?
For sedans you need to be good driver to tackle bad roads else under body will get scrapped
Is this 165mm GC, laden or unladen (with or without passengers and luggage) ?
If unladen is 165mm then, I guess with full load it will go down to 130mm I guess. Usually GC loss after full load is around 35mm.
Can you tell me,
1. How is the audio quality of music system,
2. How is the nightime headlamps throw in Zx model and is it same as VX model.. as there are many customer issues about it?
Approach and departure angle is problem.. See the front overhang
@motocar unleaded : HI thoroughly enjoyed your coverage of the City. Great insight into every aspect of the car. Sold on buying it but I'm just waiting for Slavia pricing although i doubt it will be priced aggresively. I have aquestion for you: The spped warning at 120 km/hr which beeps aggresively. Is it constant or does it stop after a while? I heard Kushaq is loud for a while and then stops. Can you explain this please? Whats the point of powerful engines if i cant cruise at higher speeds? Say even if its just 130 km/hr will the beeping keep annoying me?
Nice one bhava...
Keep it up...that stigma sucks for sedans!
see i own a city 4th gen its ground clearance is better than hyundai, but its still rubs the running board if all 5 adult passengers are seated,.
Honda City supreme luxury ❤️🔥❤️🔥the mighty legend 👑
Spoken well 💯‼️
I love his confidence and hold over english
Honda City 5th generation is good for Indian roads ?
was it aimed at ground clearance bro? that wasnt rough patch to check ground clearance.. i agree 2 ur point and m a fan of sedans . also our car culture needs to grow towards sedan... but fact is that fully loaded sedan face issue and most of them r bcause of road quality and immature speedbreakers...
Kindly show the bottom of Honda city 5th Gen.. Users like me are curious to know even bad road/humps touches underbody wat part will be damaged want to know before buying
Then Don't buy Low Ground Clearance cars Minimum 174 mm is Needed for a Indian Road Situation
@@raamnaath I brought 5th Gen City and Ground Clearance was not at all an issue.. Unless n until it is a completely off road..
@@niranjanayu Okay But in my Area ,the Speed Breaker was too Big atleast 174 mm is Needed..
First of all thank you sir for making the video on ground clearance test of Honda City ❤️
Let's suppose that there are 4 passangers in the car and there is a weight of 50 or 60 kgs in the boot so will the car struggle to clear the average speedbrakers?
Not at all
@@andymotovlogs546 great
Especially watch vedio comparison between Creta n Honda city
@@andymotovlogs546 Actually I've watched all of the videos of Honda All New City and comparisons as well but I didn't get any information about my question.
So I found this channel making practical real life test videos. So I asked
@@tejas6407 sorry I forgot to share link. I was suggesting u watch my vedio regarding same. I will share the link and vedio.
What is wrong with the rearview camera? or the infotainment display? Is it so bad in Honda City? In this video, I was observing the display. Can't see a thing. Please tell us about the quality of the camera and the rearview display? How's it at night and bright sunny daylight with examples. Thanks a lot for such videos. Would be great if you can clear this doubt of mine.
Hi, I would recommend watching this video for the display and the camera which i have already made ruclips.net/video/K6ltKhr6ROQ/видео.html
I would say its not so good but also not that bad either. Just watch the video, you will get a lot of clarity after watching ruclips.net/video/K6ltKhr6ROQ/видео.html
Keep supporting and watching :)
Very good analysis, bro.. thank you 👍👍👍!!!
Wow, the tail lights are looking more and more like BMW’s. I had a 2017 honda accord V6 (I live in the United States), and that generation was the first to have similar taillight design to bmw. Some of my dads friends even mistaked it for a bmw at night time when they didn’t look close enough!
Do a detailed video of reverse camera and parking sensors of Honda City
Pls tell abt cabin insulation. Is it as silent as Verna?
As far as the cabin insulation for Petrol engine is concerned, City bags up first here. And for the diesel one both are noisy but Honda's one is bit more refined.
agreed that 1 inch shouldn't make much difference. Sahi video hain
Great video. Might have a taken a Lot of effort. Kudos
Thank you for understanding the worth :) really appreciate your kindness :)
@@MotorcarUnleaded can I ask where does India's Honda City being manufactured or assembled? Ground clearance in the Philippines Honda City is just 134mm, yours are higher
Yes, that’s very odd. Indian Honda cars are manufactured in india itself :)
@@MotorcarUnleaded wow I hope ours was same with yours, and you got sunroof
@@abelim7044 yes but I think Philippines honda city has different variants. India has ZX as a top variant which has sunroof and some other good features on the other hand india don’t have turbo engine option but Philippine’s have that :)
I feel suspension tuning also has vital role along with ground clearance
Most people are buying SUVs because of GCs. This video is definitely educative to them!
Honda city 5th generation is ok for big size of sharp bumps that generally in village side area,
I really like this car but confused with it's ground clearance it's good for extremely rough road or sharp hight bumps (that bumps are not have any slope And size is big like obstacles not as feel bumps)
I am also so confused because of Honda City's english splash guard is to much lower side as I see, and that's why I not make decisions confidentiality to buy it,
My thinking is splash guard is easily toch ground surface or at tall bumps surface
Please suggest your opinion or share me link if you have any video regarding that matter
I suggest that lot's of people may have same confusion so please make one special video on this topic,
It will be go popular and very helpful
With regard Pragnesh
Planning to buy this car, need some suggestions on the colour.
go for silver or metallic steel. Best look for this car. Also you can consider golden brown, but that looks better on the JAZZ, But again depends on your color choices :)
WHAT A JOKE!! Was that one what you call a rough road ground clearance test ?😂 if yes, then you are a novice bro, you haven’t seen Indian roads…. Take your car On tours… that will definitely gonna help you understand the roads. And only 10 mm gap makes a considerable difference, and you are justifying the 20-30 mm gap like nothing. 😁
You are just a lover of SEDAN. That’s it.
Yes i felt same he is going on relatively flat road and saying gc is of no issue . I drove brezza and Honda City I felt brezza to be not touching the speed breakers as much as city or even a swift was touching. It gives that peace of mind though i like sedans .this is making me not come to a decision whether to buy a city or brezza
Super bro...perfect explanation...
Please let me know whether the Honda City ZX CVT Petrol 5th Generation has undershield protection cover. If not then whether it is available for purchase as accessories from Honda showroom.
Yes, Honda City has undershield Cover already. :)
Thanks for the information. We purchased the Honda City ZX CVT Petrol 5th Generation Platinum White Pearl last week. We very much appreciate the information you share through your videos on your Honda City.
@@diptendugoswami1 congratulations on your car purchase 🥳🥳🥳 Really happy for you
@@MotorcarUnleaded Thanks Brother.
@@MotorcarUnleaded Is it there in VX CVT?
Thank you Bro....👍🏽
Hi could you please make a video demonstrating how big speed breaker The car manages to cross without touching it I want to see the biggest speed breaker size it crosses without touching.
Hello Sir,
Is it good to modify the tyre profile of Honda City from 185/55 to 195/55 or 205/55 for better grip and handling?
If yes, will that new modification affect the mileage & performance of the car?
Any suggestions pls?
I've driven 195/55 16" City. It's really good.
Felt VW Virtus is good too. It has 205 section
Does city have rain sensing auto wipers
Does civic and city has the same ground clearance?
2018 Honda Civic is 134mm and honda city 2020 has 165mm
190 mm is typically the ground clearance of a crossover and it is mainly the wheelbase and not the GC that scraps the under belly of car. That said, I own a Honda City 5th Gen CVT - It a great fun to drive car and does not have much issues with respect to GC except for very bad roads
India..its bad roads...so obviously SUV the better choice...suspension
@@anupamasundar7091pls don't call the Creta segment cars SUV.
@@anupamasundar7091 A sedan is much more comfortable and plush on bad roads than any crossover sold as SUV.
Why are you not putting new videos
I wan to know more about the car
I need honda city to travel himanchal and Uttarakhand frequently . Ground clearance looks like deal brraker here. Should i consider i20 instead
30mm makes lot of difference.
Thank you so much bro 🙏
Definitely you have not visited any village side roads 🤣. I am dame sure on that time you will agrees those comments on ground clearance but we should learn how to drive on those roads and speed breakers. Then it wont be a big problem.
Good explanation
It only affects on high bumps
Ground clearance of 5th gen city is yet not given by honda
With added weight , sedans get much lower than this .
Good job buddy
Bhai jo wide speed breaker ( sloppy)hote hain unme to touch ho hi jati hogi !!!!
nice video sir .....very well described....all myths cleared.let sedan lovers hav something to be happy...
Correct but with 4 passengers it touch the ground
Tib tested w full load
Exactly
Solution is available now: Skoda slavia with 179 mm ground clearance
Well said
I have driven

Irritating English 😡
Pls tell abt cabin insulation. Is it as silent as Verna?
Oh more than silent brother :). Zero noise. With any honda car, jazz or city. Both drives like a water and completely silent cabin :)
The engine noise is sporty and not thrashy like other cars,its a joy!
Engine is very refined and sounds sporty. But Verna cabin is more silent for both petrol and diesel. The diesel city has an irritating low frequency humming.
